One of bis men, in bisjwalks about the island, came to the entrance of the main Street of a large and splendid Jcity in ruins. Capt. Fisher, on beirig injormed.of the fact, en tered the city; bj tbe principal street, whicnl was about jb re e miles in Jength. The buildings were all of stone, of a dark color, and of the jmosl splendid descrip tion: In about the ; centre , of the mam street, he found twelve solid stone columns six on each side oil the? street J they were .ht.nt fort v-five or fifty feet in,height, sur- rmounted by cap-stohes of immense weight.

We not unfrequently hear the young boasting of their superior information, and regarding, with assumed pity,; the com parative ignorance of their fathers. In the march of intelligence they Heave the men of fa' former generation far behind them. I In forming this esti mate, they make one important omission. ; v Their su periority relates principally to things com- Darativelv recent . the I knowledge of which is not easily acquired and re tained by the aged; and. they forget that these aged ones, in theirjyouthl possessed the sarne kind.Qf knowledge, which they still retain, but Which has becotne in a measure, antiquated and obsolete, just as the knowledge of the young at present will be fegarded as obsolete by their suc cessors.! We see an aged man, who in former years, was fully up to the intelli gence of his times ; but the distinguished men hefonce knew are dead, the politics are changed, the sciences he. once under stood have undergone material changes, and what was intelligence in hs younger days, ii necessarily behind the age in which lie now jives. The yioung,-then, instead pf? boasting themselves over the old, should remember that the time is ap proaching when their present vaunted knowledge, by the changes which are continually-occurring, will be regarded by their successors as out of date arid they as comparatively ignorant. It 'should be no reproach to the old, that with minds less elastic, with ambition less aspiring, wilh anfeagerness after the world much sobered by an experience of its emptiness, they should not keep up with the knowl edge of the present times, as ihey did with that which was presented to their youth ful minds in all its freshness, IFeeAy Message. eclipsed by the lustre of his achieve ments. The world's applause Is denied to he truly great, to be poured in unmea sured prodigality; upon travelling vocal- sts, fanatical agitators and impudent pre- enders.! ; ; . j I Yes, the day of triumph has arrived for Mediocrity ; and -well may she exult in the universal degeneracy in the dead dalm which enables ber to float securely upon the stagnant surface of ;the world. Let her enjoy her fortune, while it! lasts, fpr it cannot last long. In the history of nations, as in the life of the individual npan, there is a succession of vicissitudes ; and in thel stillness of the elements, en lightened 'experieHcei is wont to read the premonitions of the storm. In tbecoming day of agitation and! strife, genius will again assert its Supremacy, and manly eoquence once mpre jbe hard in the ele vated spheretfrorh which it has been driv en by the iitipudeiice of the demagogue, or. the insolence ojf povyer. ! j : We would not precipitate the crisis, or excite impatience, in any mind ; but it is neitherbad taste nor! bad philosophy to express ja wish that the leaden reign of Mediocrity -were ended.

WHEN WILL IT RAIN ? . j MEDIOCRITY. , These are days in wich Mediocrity should rejoice. Never was there a time when the road to fortune and ho power was open to their, ambition. The great names of the age have gone downin rap id succession below the horizon, only to rise again in the firmament of. history. The places they left are all unoccupied, and a dreary blank remains in the cur rent annals: of our race, unrelieved by a single example of successful genius. Look abroad over both hemispheres, and where isfa statesman to be found in povv er or in i position of influence, whose in tellectual superiority has secjured for him enduring fame? 1 In all Asia and Africa there isf not a remarkable personage known to European diplomacy. The thrones of Etiropean States are filled, with few exceptions, with women, or imbeciles, or dotards, and surrounded by inexperi enced orl infamous officials. ?Allj South Americaand Mexico might be searched in vain for jpveh a respectable ad venturer ; and our own bereaved and mourning coun try must!now alas I point the enquirer for her mostibriliiant jewels, to the grave !

HOW CITIE EXHAUST THE FERTIL ITY OF LAND. The following is an extract ol a letter from Dr Daniel Lee, to Hon. Thomas Ewbank, U. S. Commissioner iof Patents, published in tbe Ag ricultural Report of ihe Commissioner of Pat. ents, for 1849. Dr. Lee attributes such pesti lence and famine to ignorance of (he laws which govern the vegetafde and animal economy. He says : ' There has been enough of the elements of bread and meat, wool and cotton, drawn from the surface of the eaitb, sent to London, and buried in the ground or washed in ihs Thames, to feed and clothe ihe entire population of the world for acentiury, under a wise system of ag riculture and horticulture. Down lo this day, great pities havie'ever- been the worst desola lors ol the earth. It i lor this that they have been so frequently buried many feel beneath tbe rubbish ol their idols oT brick, stone, and mortar, to be exhumed in after ages by' some autiquarian Layard. Their inhabitants viola ted the laws of mature which govern the health of man, and secure the enduring productiveness! of the soil. How few comprehend ihe fact that it is only the elements of bread and meal evolv ed during the decomposition of some vegetable or animal substance that poison ihe air taken into the human system in daily food and drink I These generate pestilecce, and bring millions prematurely to their graves ! Why should the precious atoms of potash which organized ihe staich in all the flour, meal, and potaitoes consumed in tho United Stales in the year 1830, be; lost furcver to the. world ? Can a man create a new atom of pot ash, or of phbspborus, when the supply fails in the soil, as fail it must under our present system of farm economy ? Many a broad desert in Eastern Asia once gladdened the husbandman with a golden harvest. While America is the only country onitbe globe fyhere every human being has enough to eal, and millions are com ing here for bread, bow shall we continue 16 impoverish ninety. nine acres in a hundred of all that we cultivate ? , ; Both pestilence and Famine are the offspring of Ignorance. ' Ruralscienc is not a mere plaything for theamusemefjt of grown up chil dren. It is a new revelation of Providence a humanizing power, which is destined to ele evate man an immeasurable distance above bis present condition. To achieve this result, ihe lighl of conscience must not be confined lo col leges ; it must enter and illuminate ihe dwell ings of every farmer and mechanic. The know ledge of the few, no matter how profound or bow brilliant, can never compensate for ibe loss incurred by neglecting to develop ihe intellects of Ihe many. fjJo Government should be want, ins in svmpatb with the people, wbetherthe object be the prevention of disease, tbe Im provement of land,ortheedocaiion of iberoass. es. One per cent of the money now annually lost by reason of popular ignorance will suffice to remove that ignorance."
